Thank you for clarifying. I dont feel any pain during urination. My GP prescribed me a medicine called sulfamethoxazole-TMP and will be treating as an infection, and will follow up in 3 months.
My back it hasn’t hurt, but searching on google got me a little paranoid.
Should I follow up with an urologist on my own, or wait for results?
